MONTANA STATE FISH AND GAME COMMISSION the present time, and I am not excepting the ruffed grouse, prairie chicken, the ringneck pheasant or dusky grouse. From every point of view the Hun- garian is the game bird that wins the admiration and approval of every sportsman who has made its acquaintance. That they seem well adapted to climates where the winter borders on the more severe and if given their freedom they will raise covies from 10 to 20 and have been known to nest a second time if the season is favorable. Their average weight is approxi- mately 14 ounces and the meat is of an extreme excellent ; It is therefore pleasing to know that this new and wonderful addition to our game birds is doing so well in this state, and the time when an open season can be declared is not far away. The manner in which these imported birds have accustomed themselves to Montana's climatic conditions is ample demonstration of the wisdom of the state commission in fostering propagation. In Washington and in Idaho they are ranked among topnotch game birds by sportsmen who enjoy the thrill that goes with out-smarting the smartest of feathered game. Severe winters have seem- ing-iy made small inroads on the Hungarians. They are hard-working little birds. When they are able to get grit they fight their way through. They buiTow through snowcrusts and scratch to food beneath. Grit wards off dysentery. They are likewise friends of the farmer and often feed with his domesticated flocks.
